Workflow activity "Update Word Document" barcode output

asked on August 7, 2017

What Custom Properties options are available?

It appears that the barcode output is an image and I cannot seem to size that image to fit my label size and my barcode is being cut off. I do not want the user to have to manually resize it everytime.

I would like to have it autosized to fit my page size.

Thanks for any input.

I have just started using that feature myself.  I found I had to insert the barcode into a table on the word doc and lock the table from adjusting.  That way it shrinks the barcode to fit.  Caution with that method is it can shrink it too far and distort it so it is not readable.

Thank you for your response, I was curious what settings you used to "lock the table from adjusting" ?

I might of made it work, but I will have to test further tomorrow, but I am not sure which setting I made that made it work.

I originally had the field in my table, but I pulled it out in the troubleshooting process. 

Again, thanks for any input...

The "option" I use is in the word doc itself.  I set up a merge field in a table for where I want the barcode.  Then on the Table Options I just make sure the Automatically resize to fit contents is unchecked.
